all they hear from washington is about tax hikes and spending cuts. how comeobodis taing out how to grow the economy? >> well, first of all, i think the c.e.o.s of the large corporations are very tuned into this debate. many of them are actually participating directly in the debate in washington. and they're entirely aware of all of the stuff we're talking about right now, and the degree to which an agreement, which i believe we'll see, would clear the air and would free -- would liberate a lot of investment and hiring and expansion. nd as far business in general is concerned, once this is out of the way, all of that talk about tax increases, spending cuts, dysfunction, gridlock, that will disappear. so i think you'll see a better 2013 than 2012. that's not too hard because 2012 has been a very slow year, even before the fourth quarter and into hesitation. i think the outlook beyond this is really pretty good. >> susie: we're going to have to leave it there and that very upbeat note. thank you e very much, rog. we've en speakin wit roch. >> jeff: altm
